What do you think? I just dug the parents of this clump to divide to move to other locations in the garden and could not believe the size of the bulbs!!!! I would like to know the name of this variety! I have a couple I could trade for the right bulbs!!!! Tracy
another pic of these---
Is that an amaryllis?
Darius no this is a hardy bulb--crinium--- Tracy
Is it pink, then? Pinker than the photo? I have some spider lily bulbs GeorgisRedClay just gave me... I think they are red.
No--- it is white with stripes--- I have the pink and the red spider lillies thanks though----Tracy
Well then, what else would you like in trade? I'd love one of your crinium bulbs.
Darius Do you have any of these?
Tulips
Hyacinths
Daffs
Alliums--globemaster--blooming size
asiatic or oriental lillies--
I have a couple very large daff bulbs that I got from sbarr and haven't planted yet. No idea what color.
I also have some dutch iris 'Apollo' I wanted to add to the ones I already had that haven't been planted yet. See photo. My globemaster alliums didn't come back this year for some reason. I do have some oriental lillies I need to dig because I want to take them with me when I move.
Darius I would love the oriental lillies and a few of "Apolo" -- Tracy
Criniums are in the Amaryllis family. Tracy if not mistaken what u got is Crinium x herbertii http://www.crinum.org/crinpics/pic/hy17.jpg
i never grew Crinium before, would love to have a bulb if u got extras. thx... ma vie

Darius--- drop the iris bulbs and how about 3 or 4 of your oriental lillies? These are large bulbs of mine---

Hey, Tracy. Please take me off your list, okay? It's colder than a witches *** with the wind chill today and I'm not about to be outside digging bulbs. I have enough on my plate anyway since I'm getting ready to move. Maybe another time? It's a great flower bulb you have and I'd love one, but I have to pass.
Common name is Milk and Wine Crinium.
"eyes"
how big are the smaller flowering sized bulbs? Can you post a photo?
Darius--You can look me up when you get moved---
Mark--- I don't have a digital camera but I measured some and they are 10 to 12 inches in circumfernce. Tracy
Those are huge........how long had it been since they were divided?? They will bloom when they are 3 inches in circumfrence.
"eyes"
This is the first time that I divided in 7 years-
Mercy............no wonder my dear.

Bloomluver it would take too much to mail it to the UK. I'll decline the offer this time.
Thanks Mark---
eyesoftexas---Thanks so much for the name---
Tracy
I have about 30 bulbs.
Please contact me if you have any more left.
Bloomluver, how about 20 of mine for two of yours????
Berrygirl-- I wish I could send two but I am down to just one--- Tracy
If you have one left, I'll trade ya for ten of mine.
